She gets ever so lost
in the misty shadows
of love's darker side.
Her mind is ever ablaze
with the fiery conquests
of deepest forbidden desire.
The lofty expectations of
her sweltering heart cause
her to quietly swoon in his
swarthy and vile presence.
She is caught in his sparkling
web of horrific deceit never
knowing that his only desire
is to dine upon her virgin blood,
and to bathe in her innocence
so that the sands of eternity
will forever be his.
